Methods of Teaching




                 Methods of teaching is one of the important element of teaching-learning  process and the choice of teaching method that teachers used depends largely on the information or skill that is being taught and may  also be influence by the students performance.
                The inductive method is the process of learning that starts from what is already known to what needs to be known the utilization of this method has 5 steps the preparation, presentation, comparison and abstraction, generalization and application.
                The Deductive Method is reverse of the inductive in which lessons starts from the specific cases then ends to the wholeness of the cases or study. Deductive Method has four steps the statement of the problem, Generalization, Inference and Verification.
                Project Method this is the practical unit of activity of learners involving the use of physical materials to complete the unit of experience the steps of project method are purposing, Planning, Executing and Evaluating.
Laboratory Method this method of teaching is teaching the learners to investigate problems and conduct experiments in a place called laboratory. This method offers opportunities the learners to get real experiences this also increase the learners interest and provide actual participation in developing the learners skills in using the laboratory equipments.
The Problem method this method is investigating only one case which is common and learners are studying the case exhaustively.
Lecture Method this is the usual way or method that is used in teaching because as I can see this is the simplest method to be performed and because most of the lessons that is being taught is best learned when it is explained by the teachers. This method has two types the Formal an Informal the formal Lecture is that teachers presenting lessons in the class is not interrupted and questions are entertained at the end of the lecture while the informal lecture is that along the way of the lecture conversation between teachers and learners are allowed.
Demonstration Method this method of teaching is simply showing learners what to do and learners just imitate the teachers in demonstration we must get and sustain the interest of our learners, it must be simple and clear, we should not hurry our demonstration and it is important that we must give written materials after our demonstration.
Metacognition Teaching Method this method is teaching the learners to become aware of and control their learning through metacognition process. The steps in metacognition process are planning, deciding, monitoring, evaluating and terminating.
